Very light flavors with a nice spice balance that makes it very tasty with a bison steak — 9 years ago
Big nose, with a lighter, almost Pinot like flavor. Rich tannins. Earthy. Nice paired with the bison tenderloin. — 9 years ago
Not just a cabernet franc as noted, but also blended with merlot, cab sauvignon, and syrah. A delicious mutt of a wine, with bold depth, tasty fruit notes and a warm satisfying finish. Tried with venison steak, braised bison shortribs and grass-fed beef brisket - good with all! — 9 years ago

Finally! Barolo at last. Nothing is like Nebiolo from Barolo in the glass, especially one that has had time to mature. The color wants to say, "I'm mature Burgundy!", but the rest of the wine says otherwise.
The nose is unique, with the unmistakable aroma of fresh rose petals, followed by cigar ash, red apple skin, wet pine needles, and tar.
This wine was decanted for 4 hours before consumed, and the tannins were as gripping as if I just opened it and poured it. The juice exhibited notes of sour dark cherries, raspberry tart, black tea, rose water, bay leaf, and a faint smoke tinge, all stretched out evenly through the lingering finish. Twas a true treat, and yet this puppy could have laid down to rest for another 15 years, still singing of its youth.
I paired this with what I made for dinner: Pan seared Bison Loin, with a cognac shallot sauce, and sautéed mushrooms, with steamed kale and garlic cloves.
Perfection.

beautifully drinkable wine. Layered notes of deep, spicy red berries with lighter floral tones resulting in a juicy start, medium finish that lingers just as long as you'd like without being overpowering. Paired incredibly well with a bison roast and root vegetables. Would pair just as well with a hearty pasta or pork dish. — 12 years ago
surprisingly mild, not too sweet and a bit hoppy. — 12 years ago
Opened up well after decanting, smooth tannins. Cherry and dark fruit with tobacco. Paired excellent with bison dish. 2005 continues to be one of my favorite vintages for Pomerol which is drinking very well. Nice bottle to end a great surprise weekend on the west coast. — 8 years ago

This wine is an absolute crowd pleaser for those who love medium-full bodied Well-balanced, medium tannin, juicy yet complex old world reds. Single vineyard fruit, estate bottled, PAGO quality, from Navarra region. Old leather, juicy blackberry, dried fig, plump ripe plum, lush tannins, medium acidity, a hint of savoury. Offering fantastic value, this is a quality red ideal for pairing with gourmet bison burgers or BBQ filet mignon, a goat cheese and fig slice canapé with prosciutto, or easily on its own. This is a buy by the case wine for the value seeking amateur. 2012 was a great vintage. @jonsteeves rated 90/100 - tasted June 2016 — 9 years ago
Drinks like a $25 bottle. Balanced and smooth cab with hints of licorice and ripe red fruit. Nice mouthfeel with a clean finish. A great value to keep onhand for red meat night or drink on the porch. We had it with grilled bison fillets, creamed spinach and basil pesto gnocchi. — 9 years ago
Dark jammy fruit and spice that is expected from a cab but also super floral and perfume-y. Def drink with food. It can stand up to a bold dish. I ate this with a pasta and bison meatball dish and it brought about a juicy lightly sweet floral experience to my meal. — 9 years ago
What a lovely paring with my bison ribeye. Deep red fruits, medium grip with a touch of cocoa on the finish. — 10 years ago

Very good. Paired this with Bison beef meatloaf mixed with onions, topped with Smokey Burbs BBQ sauce and sautéed kale. My power went out during nor'easter right when I put this in the oven... so after getting everyone situated and candles lit I cooked this on in my gas grill on 350 for 25 minutes came out perfect. Nice dinner under candlelight and the wine was a great pairing for a hearty dish (without being to big of a wine I don't drink them often) — 7 years ago
